Product Usage Instructions

CSC Usage

  1. Ensure the operating temperature is within -40°C to +85°C.
  2. Connect the CSC to a HV Battery within the power range of 12.5V to 49.5V.
  3. Place the CSC inside the Vehicle Battery Pack as per the specified location.

WGM Usage

  1. Operate the WGM within the temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
  2. Connect the WGM to a LV INPUT power supply of 5V+/-0.125.
  3. Insert the WGM into the opening provided on the battery lid.

Introduction

  • The CSC and its WGM are an integral part of the JLR scalable Battery Management System (BMS), which enables rapid and efficient re-application of proven High Voltage (HV) systems to support our future electrification strategy.
  • The CSC measures voltage across every series-connected cell and measures temperature at different locations within the cell stack. The CSC is also responsible to perform charge balancing to maximize the battery’s energy storage and mitigate the effects of cell self-discharge.
  • All CSC’s communicate with the WGM using a dedicated wireless network.
  • The WGM in turn communicates with the BMCM via 2 (two) twisted-pair isolated SPI channels.
  • The CSC has an on-board temperature sensor to monitor CSC temperatures generated by balancing resistor heat dissipation.
  • Temperature and voltage measurements are taken by the CSC and measures are taken across every bank of parallel cells and temperature sensors.
  • Voltage sense wires are also used for the balancing currents.
